Focusing on the role of ordinary individuals in the Reformation of the 1520s, this book explores how their actions and beliefs contributed to the movement. It highlights the importance of non-verbal communication, as many lacked access to printed materials. By examining the significance of images and various cultural expressions, the work presents Reformation as a multifaceted dialogue where diverse voices, including those of everyday people, articulated their interpretations of true Christianity through accessible forms.
